My enigmatic journey into the bigfoot world began on the outskirts of Skinwalker Ranch in 2013. It was on UFO hill that strange creatures sounds were recorded including a large rock thrown next to us from the deep darkness beneath the starry sky. Up until that time I did not have a pro-active interest in bigfoot and not until I realised after reviewing recordings what I probably had an encounter with! Some two years later during a ghost box ITC session in the Guardian Building in Auckland city that repeated a phrase “Accept the Bigfoot People, big people” (repeated radio spatter?) (see video). After being away from the lush greenery of Aeoteoroa or New Zealand for nearly two decades, I was keen to explore wild New Zealand and hear the wildlife. What was about to enter my life would open my mind to what the Maori people had been talking about for centuries, the wild men of the bush and forests of New Zealand.

I had been searching for New Zealand’s illusive Bigfoot known as Matau, Maero, Tuuhourangi, Taongina, Rapuwai and Moehau or Moehau Man (around the world there are hundreds of names). Named after Moehau Mountain where some of them are supposed to reside according to Maori legend. This is the highest peak among the Coromandel ranges on New Zealand’s North Island. I was to discover that they sought me out and let me know it! With multiple heavy bi-pedal approaches, strange footprints in remote hard-to-reach places, strange structures, voices in a strange language, wood knocks, stone tapping, feelings of being followed and watched etc. I was pretty scared and wondered what on earth was going on out there. Before these strange encounters I had no idea that New Zealand has its own big foot! It was after some research I slowly put the pieces together.

Referencing early Maori, many important chiefs, including Tamatekapua of Te Arawa, are buried on its (Mt. Moehau) summit, a sacred place for those of the Marutūahu Maori tribe. There are several animal and plants that are unique to this mountain range. Known also a magical place that had fairy-like little people or ‘Patupaiarehe’ (among other names) by Maori. The highest point is private property and off-limits to outsiders. Here also lies what could be an ancient trig Celt stone (indicating a possible unreported historical past of New Zealand).

Maori described these ape-like wild men that lived in the bush, that they were “Terrible creatures, half man, half animal.” Interesting to note that these creatures according to them would throw rocks to scare people away. Most familiar with Bigfoot lore know that throwing rocks is part of their nature in other countries too. These manimal creatures were said also to have sharp talons that would kill and eat anyone that ventured into their habitat. Local Maori warned early prospectors about going into the bush alone. It is thought that perhaps one of these had killed a prospector, whose headless partially devoured body was discovered in the Martha Mine region in 1882. Also the body of a woman with a broken neck who had been dragged from her shack.

During the 20th century various discoveries of larger-than-normal footprints in the Coromandel region. Also a sighting of a hairy man-like beast had frightened campers in 1970, which screamed and threw rocks. In 1972, a hunter in the Coromandel ranges witnessed a hairy naked man-like creature, about 6 foot tall, moving along a gully. Of which prints were discovered.

Some suggest that sightings are of an escaped mascot gorilla that escaped a ship anchored near Wai Aro in 1924. But this does not account for earlier sightings. There are no bears in New Zealand which might be mistaken for a Bigfoot in other countries.

It’s been decades since the last reported (via mainstream media) sighting of an ape-like creature in the New Zealand Coromandel region and seems an actual sighting for me is highly unlikely though what has my camera picked up in the research area? From research I have learnt that sightings in North America are ongoing and frequent and that there are also islands that have them. Bigfoot also have classic tree structures in areas where they habitat. Bigfoot is seen across the globe though they have various names. Even in neighbouring country Australia, they have what the aborigines call “Yowie”. Some researcher Facebook groups report there are frequent encounters over there too. I thirsted for this special knowledge of the Sasquatch people. Who are they? Are they really dangerous to people? Are they inter-dimensional beings, sometimes being associated with UFOs (I had captured silver saucer craft on video doing around Mach 3 around Mt Moehau) and other strange lights. Leaving solitary prints.

My research took me to people like you tube’s, Sasquatch Ontario. Mike Patterson reports being given weaved gifts and marbles etc. He has built a relationship with. Discovering their names and even recording their vocalizations and spoken “WORDS”. He indicates that they can even come through walls like a ghost! (this also been my recent experience!) See my podcast interview with him on youtube.

As I run a youtube channel in recent months some have contacted me here in New Zealand to let me they too have had experiences with the Moehau. One lady even told me that a bigfoot followed her and her kids in their car from the Waitakere Ranges (West of Auckland) though refused to be interviewed further about the sighting. I have heard from law enforcement and hunters as well as others. One SKEPTIC told me in the 70’s himself and a small group had climbed Mount Moehau and slept until the early hours of the morning only to be awoken by a strange terrifying howl, that sent them packing “AT PACE” down the mountain. Though with the small town mentality of New Zealand many are too afraid that if they speak openly it may affect their opportunities for advancement in jobs and what their peers may think of them (this sounds like the UFO world.)

Nathan Reo, who runs the successful you tube channel, “Utah Sasquatch”, has had some sightings and found many tracks and wood structures. He has been successful where some others haven’t in finding their actual habitat. Many structures are made with very heavy logs and branches many of which would be very hard to replicate by humans without using heavy duty machines, cranes and trucks all out in isolated hard to reach terrain up on mountain plateaus. They also apparently make simple hideouts and have fall back positions. They are master hunters and masters of concealment.

Nathan uses his military experience to analyze Sasquatch’s strategies to stay hidden, alive and away from humans. He shows bigfoot prints of over 15″ in their forest highways. He reports their logic which has keep them successfully hidden for centuries. In a area with Sasquatch you might find tree litter criss (not dead felled trees) crossing. They weave branches together like fences to help funnel prey into a coral region. Criss-crossing. They prefer living in areas like the military crest that allows them to observe what is going on around them, move to and easily defend themselves. They need to be close to fresh water and close to food sources.
In their areas you might hear woops, knocks, find wallows, have rocks thrown at you (like I did near Skinwalker.) Although different to humans he says they do appear to like living on flat surfaces even if it is a plateau on a mountain. He encourages people to research for areas where they live. Film what you see. He said they are everywhere.

The New Zealand areas may be no different. I decided that I would employ Nathan’s method for finding bigfoot habitation here. The terrain here in New Zealand is very rugged. The New Zealand bush areas in the wild are thick and not easy to transverse. The thick green bush does allow for great concealment though this may not be necessary since I have been approached and have not been able to see them at all! Others have reported the same phenomenon. Is this a trait of bigfoot or something else?

I have spent many hours in my research area outside of Auckland, sometimes in the dead of night. I have not been harmed by anything and they could have easily taken me. With their speed, strength and various abilities, I would not have stood a chance if they had been aggressive and wanted me dead. Could there be some that are? I can’t say but they weren’t toward me. There are field researchers around the world who report similar interactions as me without being harmed.

As I am well acquainted with the Sherman Skinwalker Ranch story. I suspect that some of what happened to the Shermans could be attributed to bigfoot though not necessarily all the phenomena was. My instrumental transcommuncation sessions revealed that some of what happened there was due to Bigfoot or as they called “Apes”. There are two opposing groups as to what Bigfoot is whether it is inter-dimensional ‘woo’ or a human ape-like creature with excessive strength and cunning. I hope can gain their trust as I interact with them further.

The footprints I have found have varied in size, some are massive and some are small. Found in an area that has a lot of black berry, gorse and the menacing cutty grass (Carex coriacea)—this plant is sharp like a razor blade! Honestly who would walk barefoot in an off-the-track area with obnoxious plants, surrounded by hazardous steep cliffs and thick foliage with the occasional deadly cyanide possum bait stations along with scaling barbed wire fences in some parts? A menacing place to get to with only the duly determined adventurer to discover. Being fairly athletic helped me explore. A gem to discover in the darkness of night were communities of glow worms that live a long the creek bank. Above measurements in centimetres.

NOTE: I was using a POV go pro in a watertight case. I had a seperate external mic for sound though it picks up my movement etc. (not ideal but best I could do at the time.) The post zoomed-in footage was done in software because it was a passive small camera. I had no time to pull out the bigger video cameras in this segment.

Best listened through headphones. You can hear the movement etc. I have had interactions in this area several times already including bi pedal footsteps approaching then nothing. Here they are banging on a tree twice to get my attention. They then shook the tree. Listen for electronic voice phenomena in this as well. Also I shout ‘whoop’ three times and I get a fourth (quieter than me) ‘whoop’ back in response that is not me or an echo! Listen carefully to the audio with headphones.

The general public does not know about this area. There are geographical features that make it an ideal hide away. It is hard to find/get to. In the dozen or so times I have been here I have never come across any other people. I have gotten tree knocks, found interesting structures, gotten ‘samurai chatter,’ evp’s and strange solitary foot prints.

This is what I believe to be happening. They know I’m coming through their today. I brought with me treats for them. They knock on the tree twice and shake it to let me know they are there. If you listen through headphones (recommended) you can hear the snaps etc. The ground was very slippery and made it pretty hazardous on the slopes.

I made three whoop sounds but there is a fourth one which is not me (heard through ear phones).

I did not notice any birds from the tree area with the movement. Can you see anything/hear anything else? Post it. In New Zealand we have no bears or monkeys.

A podcast interview I conducted with Mike Paterson of Sasquatch Ontario on you tube this past Monday. I was able to spend two hours asking him questions about his experiences with a family of Sasquatch in Canada and his audio recordings of their vocals including SPEECH. I also discuss some of my strange encounters recently in the New Zealand bush and Skinwalker Ranch including video footage. We also discuss sasquatch having abilities beyond a normal flesh and blood creature. I share also some of my video footage of snapped big trees here in my research area. Also found large human like tracks in this area.

Had an entity invite me out in the bush area on January 13th, 2017. Prior to me activating the POV camera a large bipedal being ran through the bush above me for about 4 seconds or so-then complete silence. I did not see/record it.

Wood knocks on here. Another time I heard something coming toward me then stopping. With all the dead foliage on the ground it is impossible to have mass and not move without making a sound. I had seen a big spider walking on the leaves and making a sound.
Possible scream call at 20.50. This is the raw file noting has been altered or touched. I am using a POV full spectrum camera hence the pinkish hue. E.V.P. at 12.32. Woodknock at 9.50. Do you see/hear else anything on here? The bigfoot called this the day of the good moon (what I learned from an I.T.C. session-see notes further below in this post). The mesh you see on camera is part of a mosquito net on the hat I was wearing.

What lead up to me making this video was something like out of a movie and the scary part is that is true but not all is bad as I realized they were about to awaken me! Early November an entity and approached me while I lay down in bed and tapped my head (shaking the bed while I was awake) giving me the date January 13. I am assuming that was 2017. A full moon day and a Friday. I later learned through an I.T.C. session that they wanted me to go see them and on that day was according to them a GOOD MOON, and that they LIKED me and that they were free. I have no idea why they did this. I am guessing they tapped my head to let me know it was not may imagination. I called this one an entity, maybe not the best word to use but signified that it was very powerful but earthly and LOVING.

Then on December 17th we saw a delta shaped UFO along with others following behind, 2016 which neighbours and my wife saw. The police helicopter shows up at the sighting of the last light. Using my analytical mind I thought this could be Chinese lanterns. However Chinese lanterns with hot air rise vertically and horizontally according to the wind direction. Another man suggested because the lights flickered that they must be lanterns though atmospheric conditions can make any light far away flicker which also effected those on lights on the ground in the distance. Also, these lights only moved horizontally and not vertically as normal lanterns would rise. This series of ufo’s is on video (you can see it as one of my last videos on my youtube list Delta UFO with convoy) The NZ ‘Eagle’ police department did not respond when I sent a link of my sighting in a report.

Late December I had put my back out when lifting my son out of the cot/crib and the medics gave me strong meds (morphine) to help me walk and cope with the lower back pain. I started having bad memory lapses as a result of taking the powerful meds. They put people on this stuff when they are dying! Now the problem with the new med is that it effected my memory and coherent ability to think properly and as a result I ALSO forgot to take the antidepressant I was on which started to send me into a paranoid state of delusion. Just awful!!!

Now things got even stranger and it was not the drugs! I had psychically picked up on a strange man (who wore dark glasses and a mustache-Who has a mustache any more-that style went out in the 80’s? His name also just didn’t sit right either) in one of the small facebook groups I run. I could feel his energy and felt like he was working for the government or military and some how his strong attention was on me (I am an empath) as my wife and I went upstairs, to our amazement his friend request immediately popped up on screen! I sent him a message and told him I am a sensitive and asked if he worked for the government or military? The man acted surprised and asked me if that is how I treat my friends? Though he never denied my allegation (perhaps I was wrong on that part?)! I have picked up on people with strong intention before including an old roommate in the USA who sent me a message. I also got a psychic hit on my son’s birth date who was born weeks premature in danger for his life. The midwife wanted to postpone emergency testing but I felt we needed the test NOW. My beautiful son could have died!
Because of these strong medications I had to lay down. I felt weird and my heart was racing faster than usual. Now if you know what I have researched in recent years you will understand how I could really go down the rabbit hole on this one, one being the infamous Skinwalker Ranch and I felt I was solving the mystery there! This is where I had my first Bigfoot encounter after a rock had been tossed at us up on UFO Hill.

This event was one of the nights (I believe late December or early January 2017. Another crazy aspect was during the day there was a long, mournful, howling that cried out outside the window of which I cold not see the source. I wondered if somehow I was hallucinating? But Michelle my wife also heard it! Later that night as I struggled to deal with everything as I saw a shadow person come quickly up to me and push something into my heart area. Now I have had other dealings with the shadow creatures (not on meds.) also in the USA where they messed with my anger emotion while watching a violent movie and fled when I caught them out! They have also been watching me too quite intently. I believe too they were feeding off and ramping up my negative emotions to feed off. A hooded tall black spirit being who I had seen in various stages of my life had cut my throat as with something razor sharp. There was blood left on my pillow in the morning and a cut mark. I showed no fear to the scary being but told it to leave!

I felt like my heart was getting worse. I had also sent investigative reporter, George Knapp, who co-wrote the book, ‘Hunt for the Skinwalker: Science Confronts the Unexplained at a Remote Ranch in Utah’, a message that I think I know what is causing much of the activity there but was a little afraid for my life and this message. After some months of research I learned that bigfoot was a lot more than just an ape or wild man. That they could vanish, change appearance, travel through portals, mindspeak, heal people, give gifts, had been witnessed boarding UFO’s etc. I had explained the government agent thing as well. We had also seen the UFO convoy near us in the past and I was wondering if pieces of the jigsaw puzzle were coming together. I knew the bigfoot had a lot to do with Skinwalker Ranch Skinwalker Ranch: Apocalypse Close Encounters maybe not all the phenomena. I also know what can happen to researchers who get too close to the truth. They die in strange ways (that was in the back of my mind.)

My wife had decided to call for an ambulance. They arrived and treated me. Looking at the prescriptions I had been taking they said you could have died! I discarded the morphine down the toilet when I found out. Though now, other things were starting to happen to me medically! I think now the bigfoot was trying to help me or even keep me alive.

I am starting to go into withdrawal from the antidepressant as I forgot to take it because of the lasting side effects of the morphine. The paranoia got worse along with heart palpitations! I could not recall the name of the road I lived on or my kids names and the fear got worse; I began to think my wife was a plant who was trying to silent me! My heart was racing. Anyway I was fortunate to live through this among other dangerous situations I have gotten into.

The I.T.C. ghostbox session I had done in January told me, that bigfoots were on that craft we had seen in mid December.

Here are some of the messages I got from my I.T.C. session:

“Bigfoot in Craft” “You’ve seen Bigfoot in the craft Marc” (or ?) “You’ve seen big Black foot in craft”

[Marc] Was it bigfoot that gave me that date? “Think…Bigfoot move you Marc”

13.40 “Eat right ” 13.45 Trick Marc 13.51 “Eat Good Food Marc” [Marc] 13.53 Can you help the bigfoots communicate with me in New Zealand (I ask guides)?

14.07 “Fine”

14.12 “We’re free”

14.17 “Come back”

14.20 “Its a good moon” 14.25 “Marc come”

Make sure to read the description below the you tube video that tells you what parts of the video to look at as this is unedited like the first one (on a full spectrum camera).

Above: one of the suspected Bigfoot structures I have photographed here in New Zealand. Also found in North America and other places where Bigfoot habitats. I will be looking for more soon in the area

Below: one of my entries after another set of bipedal noisy footsteps approached me in the woods.

Well, funny things happen when you go and do the leg work with the paranormal. I have a very active area that I got back from today/tonight. I had been rolling video in a bigfoot area. I had gotten a got tree knock. Found a suspect structure. While I was leaving the remote area I had to take a leak. So I put down the camera and it is still rolling, then something bipedal walks through the bush very close to me heading in my direction, I thought a stranger was about to come across me. The area had a steep bushy area and over grown old roadway that I was on. It abruptly stopped and I could see NOTHING. Must have been about 30 feet away from me. Though I am thinking I caught it on my audio. This happened to me a while ago when I was in a forest area close too here where something was approaching me and then nothing. Also the big ‘thing’ that ran close to me on a slippery slope then nothing/nada zip.

The thing is where do you draw the line between a ghost and bigfoot. Sometimes they only leave partial tracks. Bigfoot in my opinion is inter-dimensional though resides in our dimension. Their stealth is renowned. Perhaps there are different kinds that have various abilities.

This area that I went to, had a bunch of cobwebs blocking a lot of the rough track. Along with all kind of prickly plants that one needs to hack through. Maybe only the Department of Conservation people go there now and again to lay possum poison.

Problem when you go some of the bigfoot groups they don’t like anything ghost related in there too. From Skinwalker Ranch you had all this varying phenomena taking place. I’m just not new ager enough.
